Tree removal

A dead or leaning tree near the house is one of those things that's easy to put off until the next big storm. If you're in Middletown, Hazlet, Keansburg, Aberdeen, Matawan or Union Beach, call and we'll connect you with a local tree company that can take it down safely, even when it's tight against the house, a fence or the neighbor's yard.

Tree leaning toward the house? Say so when you call.

Signs a tree may need to come down

No leaves in spring, or only on part of the tree
A new lean, or soil heaving up on one side of the trunk
Deep cracks, hollow spots or mushrooms growing at the base
Large dead limbs hanging over the house, driveway or play area
Roots lifting the driveway, walkway or foundation

Trees close to the house

When there isn't room to drop a tree in one piece, crews usually take it down a section at a time, lowering each piece with ropes or reaching it with a bucket truck or crane. It takes longer, but it keeps the wood off your roof. A good tree company will walk the yard with you first and explain how they plan to do it.

Questions to ask before work starts

What's your New Jersey tree care business registration number?
Are you insured, and can I see the certificate?
Does the price include hauling away the wood and brush?
Is stump grinding included, or is that separate?
Can I get the price in writing?
